Hello,

Here is a discussion started with one [math] user. As a result, James proposed 
to switch development back from branch MATH_2_0 to trunk (and to switch trunk 
to a new 1.x branch). I agree with this suggestion but cannot be sure about how 
many users will be affected. Just to be sure, we should probably do a move 
rather than a copy as I suggested in my last message (and btw, James, it is 
what you really suggested in the first place, isn't it ?).

So does anybody have an opinion on this ?

Yes, I know, its only two "svn copy" commands. The rationale for me was mainly 
that it was decided some months ago to work on this branch and this is now 
known by several users. This was one of the reasons why when I fixed an issue 
in Jira, I always added the version numer and the branch of the correction, 
i.e. MATH_2_0.

As both of you voiced against this situation and your proposal is sound, I'll 
propose the switch on the dev list.
